Across the ladder, receptor engagement rises about sixfold from the starter dose to the top, and weight loss rises with it
Targeting aging hallmarks in IPF could unlock therapies for a spectrum of chronic diseases, transforming how we approach aging and drug development
Researchers in China synthesized an optical-magnetic multimodal probe targeting TfR1, a ferroptosis-specific molecular marker, and employed molecular imaging technology to achieve dynamic visualization and monitoring of tanshinone IIA efficacy in treating myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury and elucidating ferroptosis pathway regulatory mechanisms
vitamin D intake ~20% of recommendations Lean mass risk: protein + calcium insufficiency may contribute, alongside other drivers B-vitamins: thiamine and cobalamin deficits appear to increase over time Clinical takeaway (my approach): GLP-1s dont cause malnutrition in everyone but they can unmask risk in the wrong context (older adults, low-protein diets, restrictive eating patterns, prolonged nausea/vomiting, rapid weight loss, post-bariatric patients)
Personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma, multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, or severe gastrointestinal conditions like gastroparesis may rule out tirzepatide and similar GLP-1 based therapies
